On a past lucid dream, i had this conversation with 2 children that looked like Tibetan Buddhist:Me-"Who are you?"Child-"I am me. I'm a being that exists... etc etc (here he was saying so philosophical stuff that i do not remember, unfortunately)Me-"What is the purpose of life?"Child-"It's to live a life after another."(I then refrase the question)Me-"And what is the meaning of life?"Child-"It's the same thing."Me-"Then, when we die, do we go to another life?"Child-"Yes."Me-"Does Heaven exists?"Child-"Yes. Heaven is the interval between one life and another."Me-"Does God and Jesus exist?"Here appeared to me a priest, speaking fast and with religious and philosophical terms about being prophets, but unfortunately i did not pay much attention because I felt I was about to wake up and was concerned to keep on dreaming.

I once asked "What's the meaning of life?" And what happened was beautiful and I'm still trying to figure out what it means, but I'm stuck between telling you what happened and possibly ruining it for you.. Or letting you find out in your own, but every bodies expirence will be different.

I've made up the purpose of my existence: be happy loving my family and have sex til I can't any more.

"Empty cognizance of one taste, suffused with knowing, is your unmistaken nature, the uncontrived original state. when not altering what is, allow it to be as it is, and the awakened state is right now spontaneously present."

I had a LD the other day during a nap and I finally asked the big question, what's my purpose...

I received the response, "I cannot tell you, but I know you are working on something that you haven't told me and it has something to do with that."

Nothing dramatic or awe inspiring, but still a response!

That was an awesome read! Thanks for sharing the experience. Had you read the Tibetan Book of The Dead before this dream? I'm wondering if there was an external influence to your internal experience.

Would love to hear it, esilemc00! I guess since I have already accomplished my LD mission, it wont influence the outcome .

No. I haven't read it yet. It's on my "to do" list.I guess i had that conversation because i was still questioning and thinking about our purpose in life, what's beyond this life and after death. Curiously, after having that dream, i searched the internet about what tibetans thought about life and death and i discovered that it's pretty much what those DC's told me. But i did not know this before.

Wow! I guess a type of precognitive dream? In his documentary "Quantum Activist," Dr. Amit Goswami (Physicist) says that he had a dream that said the Tibetan Book of The Dead was true and that he had to prove it, which he raises the case in his documentary. I read a good part of the book, and the philosophy is really intriguing. You may have already seen it, but a really good film to watch is "Enter The Void." The whole premise of the movie is based on the Book of The Dead, and it's a good mind bender if you're interested in that kind of stuff. (Conveniently, it is on Netflix)

Are you still with the same questions? I'm still in that boat of questioning existence, so if you have any solid knowledge...lemme know!

I once asked a dog in a dream what it represented and it replied 'June'. I'm not sure if this is some incredibly deep answer or not either way-it's not the obscure philosophical answer I'd been expecting!
